Business Information

An outstanding opportunity has arisen to acquire a distinguished manufacturing business that has been a cornerstone in the industry sectors across East Anglia for 35 years. Founded on a legacy of quality and trust, this business specialises in providing essential parts to a diverse range of sectors. With the two directors reaching a pivotal point in their careers, the decision has been made to pass on the torch. The finance director is set to retire, while the technical/manufacturing director is open to the possibility of continuing their expertise under new ownership.

Situated in the industrially rich area of East Anglia, this business presents a lucrative opportunity for expansion in several key markets including Nuclear, Marine, Carbon Fibre components, and even niche markets such as garden ornaments. Despite its established reputation, the business has much untapped potential, particularly in marketing and advertising, and leveraging its existing customer base for additional revenue streams. This is a unique chance to own a trusted name in the manufacturing industry with room for significant growth.

THE BUSINESS

This enterprise prides itself on its specialisation in fibreglass parts, demonstrating a robust increase in turnover for the past four consecutive years. The potential for scale is enticing, especially in areas previously unexplored by the current ownership.

The business has not only maintained a loyal client base but has also had the privilege of collaborating with an iconic luxury British sports car manufacturer and another renowned name in the automotive sector. Its operations encompass a variety of manufacturing processes, capable of producing an extensive range of patterns, moulds, and components. Furthermore, the location of the premises has historically benefited from Government grants, suggesting additional financial incentives for prospective owners may be available in the future.

PREMISES

The operational heart of this business lies in its well-structured workshop and storage facilities, encompassing a total area of 324m². The ground floor includes a spacious workshop area (300m²), a staff room (10.6m²), and a works office (13.4m²).

Supplementing the main workshop space are 10 small storage units (outbuildings) and one large finished goods storage unit, equipped with a roller door for ease of access. Additionally, there is an outdoor communal washroom facility with a washbasin and running water, ensuring convenience for all employees. This comprehensive setup provides an ideal foundation for efficient operations and future expansion.
